This week\\u2019s episode brought to you by Slice on Broadway, Alex Kahrs Design & Media, and Dark Forge Studios!
\\nIt\\u2019s hard to believe it\\u2019s been 8 years since we picked up our microphones and video cameras and started this podcasting about tech thing. For the occasion, we\\u2019ve got Mike Pound, Chilla, Sorg, and Katie in studio to talk about a few things:

\\n\\n

Shout out to Rob de la Cretaz. We miss you, buddy. Happy Podcast Birthday!
\\nChilla (physically) stole Sorg\\u2019s Awesome Thing of the Week \\u2013 his Wyze security cam.
\\nKatie is sharing an awesome luminary from Legendary Luminaries as her Awesome Thing of the Week.
\\nUncle Crappy\\u2019s Awesome Thing of the Week is the World Cup presence on Google.
\\nBTW: The official soccer ball for the World Cup has some tech integration.
\\nAmanda is sharing her Awesome Thing of the Week \\u2013 the Impossible Ball and the fun tech integration this little soccer(ish)ball has.
\\nSorg must be holding a grudge against Chilla \\u2013 he skipped over his Awesome Thing of the Week! (Just kidding. We\\u2019re talking about Fortnite.)
\\nFortnite on Nintendo Switch does have some issues that are angering some Sony users.
\\nBrian has joined the VR age with his discount cardboard!
\\nMicrosoft sunk their recent data center \\u2013 into the ocean \\u2013 to help with cooling.
\\nSpeaking of Fortnite, it\\u2019s opening new doors for marketing opportunities.
\\nKatie is super excited about iPhone tongue tracking for animojis and memojis.
\\nOH: I\\u2019m not going to do anything dangerous. I just want to stick my tongue out!
\\nLet\\u2019s make a giant spinning litter box \\u2013 AND GIVE IT EARS!
\\nSorg is sharing some gaming upgrades \\u2013 thanks to some thrifty finds.
\\nSorg thought the Fire TV Cube was an April Fools Day joke at first!
\\nThe Steam store will accept anything that isn\\u2019t illegal or trolling thanks to Valve\\u2019s new policy.
\\nAnd, we devolve to reminiscing about where we all were 8 years ago\\u2026other than podcasting here.
